Hi CR001,

Thanks for your replies. Please have you a look at the answers for your queries. Let me know what you thought.

1. What is your SOC?? 2136

2. Why are you getting such an enormous increase?? Has your job/role or SOC changed?? Last 3 years my employer has not increased any salary and he is doing the salary increase now.. NO my job/role has not changed.

3. Are you the only employer getting such a large increase?? I am only the only employee in that company

Then you can expect HO to perhaps want to investigate it and interview you and your sponsor to establish why only you got such a large increase. Such a large increase is an instant red flag to HO and could delay your ILR application considerably.

Why does your employer want to increase your salary now exactly??

The experience rate for 2136 is £32,000. You are already earn above the ILR requirement for next year.

From 6 April 2018, the minimum requirement will be £35,500.

From 6 April 2019 – £35,800;

From 6 April 2020 – £36,200;

From 6 April 2021 – £36,900.
